Andrzejku! człowiek dopiero w dobie upowszechniania internetu dowiaduje się o takich tragediach. Bardzo Ci współczuję, choć Barbarę znałam tylko ze zdjęć. Pewno do tej pory ułożyłeś sobie życie bo to bardzo dawno temu ale zawsze pozostanie w pamięci. Pozdrawiam Cię gorąco bo mam tylko same miłe wspomnienia związane z Twoją osobą. Małgosia zwana Kasią Szyrską
